Hi All,
A two part scenario/question:
1) We are running a 4 node GFS Cluster with RGmanager managed Virtual ip's(VIP):
What happens here is a node withdraws from the cluster and the
RGmanager VIPs dont fail over to other nodes as they are oblivious to
the gfs withdraw.
Is there anyway I can get the VIP's to relocate should a node withdraw.
2) Has anybody used the quiesce functionality with GFS we are looking
at using clones and as we fracture a clone we would like the data to
be consistent on disk right before we fracture. The data on disk is
file data, so no DB.
Thanks,
Graeme.
